I downloaded this, slightly concerned that I’d have to wade through every play to find what I needed. But the plays are listed once you download the book on the app (it’s split into 9 parts, and each part is divided into chapters, with the beginning and end of each play being clearly marked). It would be handy to have a master list of plays, in order to locate the part you need to download if you don’t have room for everything, but they are in alphabetical order so it’s easy to make an educated guess. Wonderful value to have all the plays together like this.

Struggling To Finish

Overall
3 out of 5 stars

Reviewed: 04-01-13

I've wanted to read this book ever since it was first announced. As someone who seeks out every piece of lesbian fiction she can find, it was interesting to me to see that Jodi Picoult was tackling this kind of story. So far I've been disappointed. The narration is fine, I actually found it very relaxing, but the plot is too heavy for me. Not heavy in a way you might find with a classic book, just heavy in an overly dramatic way that doesn't seem really necessary to me. I'll stick with it, but I do wish I'd gone for a different book.

Important Text...Badly Delivered

I understand the importance of this text, as a piece of LGBT literature, and I'm usually a fan of E.M. Forster's work (being most familiar with Howards End). I found the part of this I listened to incredibly monotonous and dry, and was disappointed. I think I'll try reading the book instead.
